In 2012, the ABA formally approved a change to the Model Rules of Professional Conduct to make it clear that lawyers have a duty to be competent not only in the law and its practice, but also in technology.

With the current pandemic situation ‘technical competence’ has emerged as a MUST have skill.

The webinar will cover the following aspects:

• What is technical competency?
• Understand the meaning and scope of the duty of technical competence.
• Why is technical competence considered a part of professional competence

UNHCR’s primary purpose is to safeguard the rights and well-being of refugees. In its efforts to achieve this objective, UNHCR strives to ensure that everyone can exercise the right to seek asylum and find safe refuge in another State, and to return home voluntarily. By assisting refugees to return to their own country or to settle permanently in another country, UNHCR also seeks lasting solutions to their plight.

By virtue of its activities on behalf of refugees and displaced people, UNHCR also endeavours to promote the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter: maintaining international peace and security; developing friendly relations among nations; and encouraging respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms.

World Refugee Day 2020

On 4 December 2000, the United Nations General Assembly in Resolution 55/76 decided that, from 2000, 20 June would be celebrated as World Refugee Day. In this resolution, the General Assembly noted that 2001 marked the 50th anniversary of the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees. Every year on the 20th of June, World Refugee Day is commemorated to honour all refugees, raise awareness and solicit support.

AD-LIB 1.0: NATIONAL EXTEMPORE COMPETITION, 2020: REGISTRATION OPEN: APRIL 04

ABOUT THE EVENT

Communication is the backbone of our society. It allows us to form connections, influence decisions, and motivate change. Without communication skills, the ability to progress in the working world and in life, itself, would be nearly impossible.

Public speaking is one of the most important and most dreaded forms of communication. Glossophobia or speech anxiety is the most common fear people have across the globe. Throughout primary school, it is easy to be the student who sits in the back of the classroom and avoids raising his or her hand to dodge such situations.

But in the working world, public speaking is a vital skill to have and to hone. It affects simple, everyday interactions between co-workers, bosses and employees, marketing professionals and clients, etc., and it can have an enormous impact on your career path and your level of success in your industry.

Through the extempore competition, we aim to instil the confidence of fluent and thorough speaking to our people so that they are ever ready to cross the communication barriers in respect to their professional ways.
